BOYS WHO KNOW HOW TO STRIKE

The boys employed by the Western Union Telegraph company in this city struck last Wednesday morning for two anda-half cents for each message delv- cred by them, the discharge of the Sergeant and the prize money here tofore given to the boy who had de- livered the largest number of messages. Since the appointment of one of the boys as Sergeant, the prize money has been given to him. The demands of the boys have been granted, and they have gone back to work.

THE RIGHT OF FREE THOUGHT
 DENIED.

Notwithstanding the order given by Sargent X Co. that contractors in their factory should not interfere with the right of any employe to belong to any labor organization or hold any political opin- ion he wished, F. w. Brocksieper, on last Tuesday. made inquiry as to wheth- CT any of the men of his department had been to hear Herr Most, and young Russian, believing that every man em- ployed in Sargents was master of his own political opinions, answered that he had. Brocksieper then asked him if he were follower of Most, and upon re- ceiving an answer in the affirmative, said Most ought to be hanged. The young man said he did not think so, upon which Brocksieper ordered his foreman to discharge him. The young man then went to Henry B. Sargent and related the circumstances. The matter was investigated, and Brocksieper said he let the young man go because work was slack. The latter states that this assertion is false, and that business is rushing" in this department at present. The discharged man has been in the em- ploy of Brocksieper for three years, and has always given the fullest satisfaction in his work. Since having been dis charged he has applied for employment in different shops in the city; but, after stating that he last worked for Brock sieper, he has in every instance been told no help was needed, It appears by this that the young man has been black listed Now, while we do not agree with all that Herr Most teaches, we be- lieye that no man who does should be victimzed.

THE LAW OF WAGES.

The merClless economic rule under which the present system fixes the rate of wages, in obedience to the so-caled law of supply and demand, is this: that the average wages always remain reduced to that rate which in people is barely necessary for existence and propagation; a matter governed by the customary manner of living of each people. That IS the memorable point about which the real wages always gravitate; never keep ing long above or below 1t.
 There is no gainsayinG the assurance that the wages of people are regulated by their ordinary habits of living, those habits conforming to the limits of exist ence and propagation. This is the cruel, rigorous law that governs wages under the present system The truthfulness of this standard no man can question. could call in support of my assertion names famous in economical science, even from the liberal school; for, truth to tell, 1t was the liberal. economic school which discovered and proved the law. To every one who speaks of ameliorating the condition of the worker, you must put the question: whether or not he recognizes this law? If he does not, at once say to yourself. he either desires to mislead, or he has pitiful degree of in experience in national economical science It is fact that there is not one note worthy national economist who denies this-Adams, Smith, Say, Ricardo, Mat thews, Bastiat, and John Stuart Mill-all of them unanimously acknowledged it. So, too, do all men of science. Ldsaile.

ENTIRELY MISREPRESENTED,

To the Worhmen'S Adcocute:
 An article in your paper of April 30th entirely misrepresents my position con corning the Hardware to be used in the now Town Aims House.
 distinctly stated that l believed in freedom of trade in the purchase of it. What l especially objected to was the clause in the specifications that discrimi- mated aga,nst hardware made in New Haven, wherein it states that ,,ll hard ware not otherwise specified shall be that made by manufacturing company not in this city or county. and thereby cutting off all opportunity for any pro- posal from New Haven manufacturers. That sort of trade is not free trade but is protection of foreign trade against home trade. believe that there should be no discrimination against home trade and home mechanics I was not aware before, that your paper ob- jected to the employment in American factories of foreign-bom workmen.
 Yours truly, J. B. SARGENT.

LOCAL NOTES.

The WoRKMEN's ADVOCATE goes to press before the McGlynn lecture. But it is safe to say 'prophetically' -"the house was crowded"
 The plumbers and painters of this city deserve much credit for the business like and orderly manner in which they have carried on their strike for their rights.
 John Most spoke on Free speech and the pententary" to n fair-sized audience in Turn Hall last Saturday evening He was listened to with the closest attention for one hour and d half, and seemed to make deep impression on those of his hearers who were not Socialists.
 The scab carpenters employed on a certain store on Chapel street look as if they were ashamed of the unmanly part they are playing against their fellow wage-workers It may be easy for them now, but the day is not far distant when the scabs and rats will have to pay for tne lHiilS pitCtS Dl SiiNti lit) iidNt taken, and let them not forget 1t.
 The Union, Troup's organ, insinuates that certain priest in this city in a ser mon attacked Rev. Dr. Mctlynn, saying, that eff he had spent the last twenty years of his life in building parochial schools he would not now be going about the country, with rebellious congrega- ton at his back, advocating the prmci- ples he does today" All of which may be true. But Dr. Mc(ilynn is an Amer ican citizen in the full sense of the term, and could not be dictated to by apy for eign potentate as to his duties as citi- zen. Like many of the noble priests in Ireland, he evidently thinks more of the welfare of his people than of all the emp ty honors that could be bestowed upon him by the Italian bosom friends of the crowned idlers and exploiters of Europe Dr. McGlynn has brains in his head which cannot be said of many of his narrow minded critics.

TRADES COUNCIL.
Brewers Organizing Labor Day-Against
 Foreign Court Snobbery.

ToTtIku OouTt SnODDefN.
 At the regular meeting of the Trades Council last Sunday night it was report ed that the journeymen brewers had formed Union and would send dele gates to the next regular meeting. The boss brewers were in session to consider the demands of the journeymen, who were also in session to receive the answer of the bosses, The organizing commit, tee reported that the journeymen barbers would hold meeting next Sunday to organize Barbers' Union, to be com posed exclusively of wage-workers, in accordance with the recommendation of the Trades Council, and would connect themselves with the National Barbers' Union. They are now organized in a Union with the bosses.
 Many organizations reported in favor of having grand union celebration on Labor Day, none having reported ad versely. Full reports are to be brought in at the next meeting.
 It was reported that two or three ''con- servative" trades unions proposed to start Central Labor Union as rival to the Trades Council and that the scheme was being encouraged by dele gates from the Central Labor Union of New York. The secretary was instructed to communicate with the Central Labor Union of New York, and ascertain if that action was authorized or sanctioned by that body.
 It was voted to recommend to all work CTS to attend the lecture of Dr, McGlynn to be given under the auspices of the Labor Party next Friday evening.
 The following was adopted by unani- nous vote:
 Resolved, That the Trades Council of New Haven looks upon the representation of the United States al foreign courts as an unneces sary expense upon the taxpayers, and a means by which snohbery is imported to this country Resolved, That the vacancy of the Austrian ministry for eighteen months Is a powerful ar gument in favor of the withdrawal of all such representation.

IT IS HOLY.
TO TIVE To the WOrkmen's Aduocdte.

While every creature, above all hu- man being, requires food to nourish his body, clothing to cover it, and shelter to rest in, and whereas, labor procures all these, as well as other necessities for existence, it is therefore Noble.
 Whereas, those who do not labor are compelled either to live on others labor (which is unholy) or steal, (which is un- holy) or rob, (which is unholy), or fraud, embezzle, swindle, counterfeit, etc., all of which are unholy, it therefore follows that iabOr is holy. j, FINN.
